Questions answered

Discuss the essentials.
Before launch.

How are payments accepted without an in-flight connection?+

Under a scenario agreed with the bank, the terminal stores transactions and submits them when connectivity returns. Success depends on subsequent bank processing. Limits, stop lists and retry rules are configured for the project.

Is this the same as EMV offline authorisation?+

Deferred transaction submission and EMV offline authorisation are different mechanisms. This page describes deferred processing; the specific mechanisms and restrictions are determined by the bank and solution configuration.

Can sales connect to our accounting system?+

Yes. The API supports transaction, shift, product and revenue data exchange. The exchange scope and product marking integration depend on the systems you use.

Do we need to replace every terminal?+

We first review your models, payment interfaces and current configuration, then propose compatible equipment and any required changes.
